Urgent Alert: CVS Recalls Organic Brazil Nuts Nationwide Amid Salmonella Contamination Concerns

CVS Health has issued a critical voluntary recall for specific lots of its popular Gold Emblem Abound Organic Brazil Nuts, urging consumers to immediately check their pantries. The recall, announced by the retail pharmacy giant, stems from the potential risk of Salmonella contamination, a bacterium that can lead to serious and sometimes fatal infections.

The affected product is the Gold Emblem Abound Organic Brazil Nuts, sold in 12-ounce bags with the UPC 0 50428 54149 7.

Consumers should particularly look for packages displaying a 'Best By Date' of 07/20/24 and 'Lot # 230720C'. These specific lots were distributed and sold in CVS stores across the entire United States, making it crucial for customers nationwide to be aware and vigilant.

Salmonella infection, or salmonellosis, can manifest with symptoms such as fever, diarrhea (which may be bloody), nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain.

While healthy individuals typically recover, the infection poses significant risks to young children, frail or elderly people, and those with weakened immune systems, where it can cause severe complications and, in rare instances, be fatal. Less common but more severe illnesses can include arterial infections, endocarditis, and arthritis.

CVS Health has proactively taken steps to remove the potentially affected product from its store shelves.

As a precautionary measure, the company is advising all customers who have purchased the Gold Emblem Abound Organic Brazil Nuts with the specified lot number and best-by date to cease consumption immediately. Customers are encouraged to return the product to any CVS store for a full refund, ensuring their safety and peace of mind.

The company emphasizes that as of the announcement date, no illnesses related to the consumption of these recalled Brazil nuts have been reported.

However, the recall remains a vital public health measure to prevent any potential harm. For any questions or concerns regarding this recall, customers can contact CVS Customer Relations directly at 1-800-SHOP CVS (1-800-746-7287), available Monday through Friday from 8:30 AM to 7:00 PM ET. Staying informed and acting swiftly is key to safeguarding your health and the well-being of your family.
